Hey JB - lets discuss offline if there's still any interest in it. Trying to
clean up the list of issues. thanks
> Support usage of WADL instead of the JAX-RS annotated class
> -----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CXF-5830
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-5830
> Project: CXF
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: JAX-RS
> Reporter: Jean-Baptiste Onofré
> Assignee: Sergey Beryozkin
>
> Right now, to create a REST service (directly in CXF or using camel-cxf in a
> Camel route), we have to provide a JAX-RS annotated class.
> It's required by both server/consumer endpoint, but also for client/producer
> endpoint.
> It would be great to use a WADL instead of the annotated class, as we do with
> the WSDL for SOAP services.
> The CXFRS client can be invoked in a web client mode where no class is
> needed. However, it would be great to optimize it a bit, say pass WSDL
> document, may be some XPath expression to a given request and let it happen.
> This can work in a typeless response mode for GETs so we'd get all the info
> from WADL and then provide JAX-RS response. Or may be even in a type mode if
> we know "Book" (some concrete model) is returned.
> Once it's supported by CXF, I will enhance the camel-cxfrs component to use
> directly a WADL without the JAX-RS annotated class.
